Timber Fencing Contractors Across Sydney
Fencing and Landscaping Experts supply and install timber fencing across Greater Sydney — treated pine paling, hardwood (ironbark and tallowwood), picket fences and modern horizontal timber privacy screens. We have been building timber fences in Western Sydney since 2016, and every fence is built with concrete-set posts and proper rail spacing to ensure it stays straight and upright for decades.
Timber fencing remains the most popular choice for Sydney backyards because of its natural look, affordability and ease of repair. We use H4-treated pine for all in-ground post applications — H4 treatment is the minimum standard for Sydney's soil conditions where timber-attacking termites and soil moisture can rapidly degrade untreated wood. For premium longevity, we recommend hardwood rails and posts with treated pine palings, or a full hardwood fence on difficult sites.
We also repair existing timber fences — replacing rotten posts, sagging rails and broken paling boards. If your fence is beyond economic repair, we can quote on a full replacement in timber or Colorbond. Free on-site quotes across Sydney with written breakdowns provided.
Timber Fencing Types We Install
From budget pine paling to premium hardwood — we supply and install all major timber fence types across Sydney.
Treated Pine Paling Fence
H4-treated pine paling boards on treated pine rails and posts — the standard Sydney backyard fence. Cost-effective, readily available and easy to repair or extend.
$80–$120 / linear metre
Hardwood Paling Fence
Ironbark, tallowwood or spotted gum paling boards for a premium, longer-lasting fence. Dense hardwood resists rot, termites and warping far better than pine.
$120–$180 / linear metre
Colorbond-Capped Timber Fence
Timber paling fence with a Colorbond cap rail along the top — extends the lifespan of the fence significantly by protecting paling tops from water and UV damage.
$100–$150 / linear metre
Timber Picket Fence
Traditional picket fencing for front gardens and low boundary applications. Available in pointed, flat and dog-eared picket styles. Paintable and stainable.
$100–$150 / linear metre
Privacy Screen Timber Fencing
Horizontal or vertical timber slat privacy screens — popular in modern Sydney backyards. Custom height and spacing to suit your design and privacy needs.
$150–$250 / linear metre
Timber Fence Repairs
Post replacement, rail repair, paling replacement and fence re-alignment. We also quote on section replacements or full fence upgrades from timber to Colorbond.
From $250 per repair

Timber Fencing Sydney — FAQs
How much does timber fencing cost in Sydney?
Timber fencing in Sydney costs $80–$120/m for treated pine paling, $120–$180/m for hardwood paling, and $100–$150/m for picket fencing. Prices include supply, concrete-set posts and installation. Free on-site quotes provided across Greater Sydney.
How long does timber fencing last in Sydney?
H4-treated pine fencing lasts 15–25 years in Sydney conditions. Hardwood (ironbark, tallowwood) lasts 25–40+ years. Adding a Colorbond cap rail significantly extends lifespan by protecting paling tops from water. Annual oiling or sealing is recommended.
Do I need council approval for a timber fence in Sydney?
Boundary fences up to 1.8m on side or rear boundaries are generally exempt development in NSW and do not require council approval. Front boundary fences have lower height limits (usually 1.2m). We advise on your specific LGA requirements during the free quote.
What is the difference between paling and picket timber fencing?
Paling fencing uses flat vertical boards butted tightly together for full privacy — the standard Sydney backyard fence. Picket fencing uses spaced pointed or flat-top boards with gaps between them — decorative, traditional and suited to front gardens and lower heights.
Do you repair existing timber fences in Sydney?
Yes — we repair rotten posts, sagging rails and broken paling boards. We also quote on full fence replacements, including upgrades from old timber to new Colorbond. Free quotes available for both repairs and replacements.
